Allsorts challenge Birthday!

Hello crafters, 
This fortnight, the Allsorts challenge celebrates its 16th Birthday! For that very special challenge we have an easy theme... Anything Goes and fantastic prize bundles of AALL & Create crafty goodness amongst others!

So of course I had to showcase one of my latest acquisition from ALL & Create... 

I used a sheet (A4) of the Ethereal Expeditions paper (#15) from AALL & Create with the die Building Silhouettes (#58) to create the card.
Steps: 
1. Place the die on the side you have chosen as the front of the card, bottom right on the long side. 

2. Die-cut 

3. Turn the card to the opposite side (the back) and place the die to the right of the sheet. 

    To get the same effect as I did, with the higher roofs at the back, place the die higher than for the previous cut. I placed mine 2.5cm (1") above.

4. This time you need to do a partial cut, and only die cut the top of the die, otherwise you going to have the back of the card cut off! In addition if you want to write on the inside, try to cut only what is visible from the front so that the rest of the card is without windows! 

After die cutting score the card in the middle and fold. The opened card in the sun gives lovely shadows:
